Mareveg - Casiopea [PURRFECTION]

∆ Buy/Stream: https://go.protonradio.com/r/rlua_cj0brACU

Roger Martinez's Higher States opens the new year by welcoming Ra Duh to the label for his debut EP. Best known for his The Real Experience artist moniker, Romanian artist Ra Duh has been a fixture of the progressive house underground for over a decade. Releases via Aboriginal, Balkan Connection and Laika Sounds sit as discography highlights, showcasing a dark groovy sound favoured by a wide assortment of genre tastemakers. Also a highly regarded DJ, Ra Duh has played an active role in his country's nightlife, programming music for some of Romania's trendiest events and venues, most notably Pârtia Cârlibaba, RoBurn and Untold Festival, amongst others. With the final Real Xperience release coming in 2022, the Romanian artist has spent the last two years retooling his sound for the launch of his Ra Duh alias. Now, as 2025 begins to take shape, he embarks on this new production journey, notching the moniker's debut 'Sigma / Ganymede' via Higher States.

Lead track ‘Sigma' finds Ra Duh collaborating with fellow countryman Hadrian aka Audio State. The Cluj Napoca resident has achieved measurable success under his Audio State alias, with a superlative string of releases featuring a club-effective approach to modern techno music. Pan Pot's Second State and Mistress Barbara's Terminal M have been landing spots for Audio State's premiere projects, in turn earning praise from the underground's elite guard. Now debuting his new artist moniker Hadrian, he teams up with Ra Duh on ‘Sigma'. Full of darker monochromes, the duo's creative synergy shines across this deep chuggy cut, one complete with tension filled builds, swing-heavy rhythms and a devilish effects narrative which pushes the journey to the very edges. Vibrant chord stabs provide an enduring main theme leading into the break, tactfully percolating as the interlude evolves, before melting down to a finale of looping hypnotism.

The release concludes with ‘Ganymede' which finds Ru Duh operating in solo capacity. The Romanian expounds his progressive vision here, with spacious rhythms and wispy sonics blanketing tough kick drums and chunky basslines. Clever percussive co-actions marry squelchy stabs and orbiting effects, while an inventive break highlighted by mediterranean motifs and an understated build preludes a finale of charming overlays and carefully controlled sonic manipulations.

Pure Distance EP

Pure Distance (Zankee Gulati Remix)

US-based producer Solis [US] @solis returns to Univack with an EP featuring three original tracks and two remixes by Kostya Outta @kostyaoutta and Redspace @redspacesound , titled "Darshan / Lumina / Nebula". With a focus on Progressive House, this release stands out for its melodic sophistication and emotional depth—hallmarks of all the artists involved.

In “Darshan” and “Lumina”, Solis reveals his unmistakable and personal style, marked by melodic elements that merge into a progressive, epic, energetic, and timeless harmony.

Kostya Outta  delivers a reinterpretation of “Darshan” with more drive and dynamism. His version incorporates expansive elements and a more assertive energy, preserving the melodic soul of the original but pushing it toward a more club-oriented approach—perfect for peak-time moments.

Redspace’s remix of “Lumina” transforms the track into a darker, more hypnotic landscape. With a pulsating groove, psychedelic effects, and subtle layers of emotional tension, this version fits seamlessly into deeper moments on the dancefloor.

Finally, “Nebula” closes the EP with an entirely different atmosphere: an ambient journey—spatial, ethereal. With floating textures, expanding harmonies, and a tempo suspended in time, this piece serves as a perfect DJ set intro or a backdrop for introspective and meditative moments.

Ethereal Surge

For our next release we are treated with a diverse 4-track EP by Ghettofaust. After his first appearance on the label last month we are excited to announce his 'End Of The Earth' EP. A diverse yet synth-driven EP showcasing the diversity Ghettofaust is capable of. Starting off we have 'Zugzwang', a mellow dub-infused groovy house track. Following is the title track 'End Of The Earth'. Spooky pads, classic house stabs & a solid warm bassline, the perfect recipe for a proper house record. Diving deeper into the EP we are greeted by the synth-infused techno track 'Mea Culpa'. A bit reminiscent of older Vince Watson productions, the tune layers a lot of different elements together creating an atmospheric & melodic rhythmic record, the true definer of Ghettofaust's style & abilities. Rounding off the EP we stay in the techno area with 'Feierabend'. Proper grooves, dubby stabs and a latin guitar to give the track an unusual twist. 'End Of The Earth' is out on all major platforms on the 29th of August.
